Giannis and jrue are two of the best people in the NBA.
Also I think jrue is better than most people think he is

Well deserved. Barnes had one of the best rookie seasons ever, it shouldn't have even been a discussion. No other rookie led their team to a playoff berth...why was this even in question lol
Because rookies are only supposed to be on bad teams and put up big numbers lol
So happy for Scottie and high five to the voters for taking into account impact on winning.
Did you see how high seeded the Cavs were before the team fell due to injuries?
Basically lost ROTY and COTY because players got hurt and the record/season tanked.
Mobley deserved it as much as Barnes, at least.
I do think Mobley should have won it and if the argument is wins, well the Cavs had a bigger increase in wins.
Doesn't really matter though. What does matter is the Magic got stuck with fucking Jalen Suggs after both of those guys. I'll never forgive the Cavs or Raptors for this travesty

"if I'm New Orleans, putting a call to Masai tonite once the Raps are swept to inquire about Scottie for Zion"

Andy Larsen: Donovan Mitchell lifted the Utah Jazz out of despair once. If he’s going to do it again, it’s up to him to be better
Jazz star guard Donovan Mitchell has earned significant organizational control in recent years — but in order to improve, the Jazz need more from him on both ends of the floor.
Jazz media finally going all out to point out how Mitchell has been unwilling to play winning basketball.
It makes you feel any better, a chunk of the Toronto
Thankfully raptors management doesn't take advice from the
I assume bad things that come out about them/that they do is due to the influence of the hellspawn known as grayson allen.
Yeah it annoys me that Masai knew what he was doing. Conventional wisdom was Suggs > Barnes even though Suggs never handled the full point guard load at Gonzaga, lacked elite athleticism or size, was relatively old, wasn't a particularly great shooter, didn't have a great handle and wasn't much of a defender in college. I hated the pick when they made it and it went somehow even worse than I imagined. At least we got Franz with the 2nd pick though, a guy who normally wins ROTY if this class wasn't so stacked
the fact that this type of article is being written about their star player before the series/playoffs is even over shows that this is badAndy Larsen: Donovan Mitchell lifted the Utah Jazz out of despair once. If he’s going to do it again, it’s up to him to be better

I mean, he is playing like total shit after years of support in ton of stuff from the team.
I think Cade and Mobley would've both been as deserving. They were incredible and this draft class is gonna be remembered for a long time.
And yes, definitely count me among those that wanted Suggs. And I still think he would've been a good pick for us. But Scottie is a generational talent and all-around great human being.
Excited to see how he develops in the next few years. He's still so unbelievably raw in some ways and still made a huge impact just by virtue of his hustle, physicality and basketball iq.
Hand the keys to Magic Barnes. Sorry, Fred.

I had clue he came out of college as a defensive player 😬🤷🏻♂️Andy Larsen: Donovan Mitchell lifted the Utah Jazz out of despair once. If he’s going to do it again, it’s up to him to be better

I would respectfully disagree about Cade. Pistons were a special kind of awful this year - not Cade's fault - but compare that to Mobley and Barnes who were visibly invaluable to their squads, especially on the defensive end. Mobley and Barnes were top 1 or 2 defensive players on already decent teams.
Cade has the higher upside offensively but until it translates into closer games (heh not even wins, just better losses!), it's kind of a tough comparison against the other two.
It took Cade a while to get going, with the injury to start the year and getting acclimated to the league, which is why he didn't win.
But he put it together after the All star break and looked every bit like the all-around offensive engine that made him top pick. The pistons will be very good in time and a lot of that will be because of Cade.
On this occasion, we give praise and thanks to our saviour, without whom, Scottie would never have been our franchise's future.
Reminds me wonder how he's doing after his injury scare.
IMO Raptors offense runs smoother with Scottie handling the ball over FVV and Siakam. Making the shots, however, is a different matter entirely.
It's too real. He can't stop ANYBODY from getting an easy layup. Not even a 5'8 lazy white dude.
